Learners demonstrate their knowledge pictorially, concretely, and abstractly in this unit meant to last three hours over three days. Using hands-on activities, manipulatives,  real-world applications, and problem...

There is no substitute for checking the solution. A short introduction to the substitution method of solving systems of equations is an ideal resource for algebra classes. The slides present steps for the substitution method and...

Eliminate the obvious. A series of slides presents algebra classes with step-by-step procedures for solving systems of equations using the elimination method. It provides an introduction to the elimination method for...

Ask your algebra learners to write an equation that has unit constraints. This commentary talks about the constraints, but does not show them in the equation. It is important that your mathematicians understand that the units apply to...

Your learners explore growing patterns by describing, extending, creating, and evaluating practical pattern problems in this three-day collaborative unit. Beginning with concrete patterns and function tables to extend and...
